Lizards, time to call it a night. Have fun with the troll who happens to think that there are “good” wars. There have been necessary wars, but there has not and will never be a good war.

I can see how that terminology might disturb you; as it should probably disturb any sensitive, liberal person. What I mean to say was “necessary.” In my view, in the last 100 years, the only “necessary” wars have been WWII and Afghanistan. Others might be good ideas (Kosovo, Rwanda) but were certainly not necessary per se.

And of course, morally speaking war is never “good.” As if that ever stopped anybody.

My respect for international law asymptotically approaches the zero axis with each passing year…

Does this make me a “neocon”?

Sounds like it to me. But good luck with that.

I like the concept, but I personally would rather wait until the last member of the Greatest Generation has been laid to rest before we start saying that in public.
